Because it’s not as good. Why would I want two languages and two runtimes when I can just have one, all while delivering a demonstrably better user experience?

How dare you attempt to sully the honor of my beloved Power Mac 9500, or take an implicit shot at my Performa 638CD — which was not even 4 digits, but 3 digits and 2 letters. You need to check your wiring, friend, or dial up your SoftRAM.

If you bought an Apple Watch and keep an iPhone connected to the internet, I'm not sure you've completely fulfilled your anti-Apple agenda. XD Still neat though. You might also check in on Garmin watches. They have many of the sam

It sure takes an awful lot of hard work to be in the right place at the right time. Foolish, both of you. Vision matters and Jobs had one. If it were all just meaningless fate, really there’s no reason to get out of bed or even comment on H

Too charitable indeed. Google was simply unprepared and has inferior alternatives. My prediction is that next year they will catch up a bit and will not be shy about releasing new technology. They will remain behind in LLMs but at least wil

So much is right about LiveView. Thank you for all the work. A remaining opportunity is a beautiful component library like a shadcn. You can dunk on the complexity of JavaScript, but every choice has tradeoffs and a huge advantage of that e

They say that, but what if the opposite was the actual truth? Look every VC is "founder friendly" because without founders there's no deal flow. At the end of the day though every VC is optimizing for exit value. So it makes

I tried Fly early. I was very excited about this service, but I've never had a worse hosting experience. So I left. Coincidentally I tried it again a few days ago. Surely things must be better. Nope. Auth issues in the CLI, frustration

The status pages of OpenAI and Anthropic are in stark contrast and that mirrors my experience. Love Anthropic for code and its Projects feature, but OpenAI is still way ahead on voice and reliability.

Question without judgement: why would I want to run LLM locally? Say I'm building a SaaS app and connecting to Anthropic using the `ai` package. Would I want to cut over to ollama+something for local dev?

This boils down to something quite simple. WPEngine wants money. Matt wants money too. It’s zero sum. Matt, free advice. If you really think your commercial product is better (maybe it retains more post history or whatever the case), spend

It may just be his public persona. I don’t work with him on a day to day basis of course. I find him to be very uninteresting. He speaks with an air of aloof tech-savant but it feels quite hallow, faked, forced. I can’t think of many exampl

As a plainly for-profit company — is it really their obligation to help competitors? To me anti-competitive means to prevent the possibility for competition — it doesn't necessary mean refusing to help others do the work to outpace you

Bummer not to see a more meaningful Ultra 2 update. I would have at least considered it. I recently received the new Garmin Fenix 8 Sapphire and, while expensive, it is really a stunning piece of hardware. Perhaps it's not quite as wel

It’s disappointing there is no Kindle app, unlike the Supernote and some others. And yet on the Supernote, it’s disappointing there’s no night light. Please, Remarkable, find a way.
